Portal Style Edits:
Prosilver and Subsilver2 are automatically updated during installation...
To update other styles go to ACP > Automod, select the Kiss Engine mod and use the option to update your style. Please note, this will only work for styles that conform to prosilver/subsilver2 format...
For other styles you can request a port from http://www.kiss-portal-styles.com.

Note:- *Common files code explained:
The common files code allows mod designers to avoid duplicating template files for every style installed... Simply add your new template files to the portal's common files folder and the Kiss Portal Engine will do the rest... The code pre-dates phpBB3's inheritance mod, it is simpler and requires no user intervention... If the template file is not found in the current style, the common file version is loaded automatically... - **Web Page support:
Kiss supports calling standard html files... yoursite.com/portal.php?page=web_page_name - Copyright:
Please retain all copyright notices as removing them may result in support being withheld.
Notes re login/out
If you login via the portal page you are redirected to the portal...
If you login via the index page you are redirected to the index...
Logout will redirect to portal (if set inACP > PORTAL > phpBB Pages > Landing page), otherwise the index.
No other mods are necessary...
Notes re images: All Images/Icons in this project were sourced from the Open Icon Library or designed by me...
